My tacho, fuel guage and glow plug warming has stopped working. Vehicle still starts but runs really rough initially until warmed up. I am told the problem is in the ECU. Has anyone got any ideas here, or spares for sale or a possible fix or where i might get it fixed. The price new from Nissan can only be described as extortionate. Any help really appreciated. Steve
Post up an intro Steve, you will find more members will try and help out if they see an intro there.
Cheers

I'd be getting a second opinion, GQ 2.8 is a mechanical diesel and does not have an ECU.

Have you checked your fuses?
Thanks guys Yep had an auto sparky check all fuses. The problem is in a small silver metal box (i just assumed ECU) approx 6" square located in the kick panel on the drivers side (beside accellerator). He pulled it out and it has a burning smell in it, pulled the lid off but cannot see anything visible. It's a 97 GQ.
Todd Thanks for the advice but am not sure what you mean by post an intro
G'day Steveo, he means put a post up in the introductions section to say hi to the friendly community and a couple of sentences about yourself.Quote:

That would be the glow plug control unit, but this would not stop your tacho or fuel gauge from working unless you had a blown ignition fuse.Quote:
